[CS-FSLUG] Cash Back Credit Card?

	Probably, not. I'm not fond of carrying balances, so I might spend  
the same (and get more) but not carry more. The idea is to take  
regular monthly services I pay for, along with big ticket purchases,  
and try to get something back from them.

	Interest rates are too high to spend _more_.

	That would be better than nothing, I suppose, but I'll be the greedy  
guy and say I'd rather take the money myself. :-P (Actually, the goal  
is to essentially reduce the cost of the things I need to buy via the  
cash back rebates.)
